Where Poppies Grow: A World War I Companion door Linda Granfield

A shorter version of the DK Eyewitness series, suitable for a slightly younger audience. It's roughly organized chronologically, with topics covered in a single spread. Scrapbook style illustrations and photographs are a bit distracting but are relevant and informative. With an index.
